Jul 19, 2024, 08:41 PM

Democratic Congressman Seth Moulton has expressed concerns about President Joe Biden's cognitive abilities after a recent encounter at the 80th anniversary of D-Day in Normandy, France, in June. Moulton, who has known Biden for a decade and previously called for him to withdraw from the presidential race, noted that Biden did not seem to recognize him during the event, where they were in a small group. Moulton's remarks were published in a Boston Globe op-ed, where he detailed the encounter and suggested that Biden's cognitive decline is becoming more apparent. This incident has fueled further debate about Biden's fitness for office among both supporters and critics.
